Company to feature Drivable Grass® and other products at IBS 2017

(CARLSBAD, CA – October 18, 2016) – Soil Retention Products, Inc., inventor of the award-winning Drivable Grass®, a flexible, permeable, and eco-friendly paver system and Verdura®, a plantable concrete retaining wall system, will be highlighting the functionality and transformational benefits of its products at the International Builders Show in Orlando January 10-12, 2017.

See us at Booth S1145

Drivable Grass® pavers are 24”x24”x1.5” and are designed to be flexible and permeable. A cast-inside engineered polymer grid allows Drivable Grass® to flex and conform to irregular ground surface contours along pre-defined linear grooves, while providing the intended structural support needed for daily use. The product maintains its load supporting characteristics even when saturated.

The design also eliminates sharp edges common in other products and won’t crack and break like rigid concrete.

Other applications include pathways, patios, swales/drainage and more. Drivable Grass® is ideal for eliminating storm water runoff, bio filtration and reducing heat island effect. Strong, durable and flexible, it gives more options to customers than ever before.

Also featured at IBS 2017, is the company’s award-winning Verdura®. It is the most plantable, versatile and Strongest Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) retaining wall system on the market today. It offers the opportunity to create “living” walls, providing the strength and function of a standard retaining wall plus the added ability to sustain live plantings. The lightweight blocks are made of low moisture absorbing concrete that will not deteriorate over time. A strong lip on the block interlocks the units, allowing for compaction right behind the blocks and holding the soil inside the block.

The product comes in several sizes, the Verdura® 10 is ideal for small garden beds, edging, or tree rings. Larger size blocks allow for up to 60 ft. high retaining walls. Whether you’re looking to create a vertical herb garden or to economically terrace a hillside, this specialized, fully plantable, segmental retaining wall system provides the solution to a wide variety of design challenges.
